ABSTRACT
Fatigue in soils is a relevant phenomenon for many structures such as wind power plants, offshore installations, embankment, railway and tunnel (Andersen 2009).To obtain reliable results for the design of structures, the constitutive model has to be able to reproduce with good accuracy the cyclic behavior of soil. An accumulation of permanent strains during cyclic loadings with a possible stabilization depending on the applied stress level is often observed. For this purpose, models based on extension of the classical theory of elastoplasticity have been developed.
